The differences between leadership styles are not necessarily positive or negative in building leadership, but executives need to be aware of their style and how they come across to others in their organization and outside.
A year ago I went to a wedding where the bridesmaids wore identical dresses and the maid of honor wore a dress that was longer and a different style and color. For that wedding, the bride only chose the dresses for her bridesmaids and allowed the maid of honor to pick out her own dress.
Rich Elizabethan women also wore thick petticoats and on top of this came the corset and skirts. Their skirts were held up with hoops and are often padded at the hips. Then on top of all the was an outer bodice and a skirt or a fine dress and to finish it off, the women wore a coat or a dressing gown which went all the way down to the floor.
